Rootstown Communicator Page 1 THE STANDARD IS EXCELLENCE HOME HE ALL OF THET The F S ROVERSOVER Rootstown 2015 Communicator R L S • S R • R, O • () - News from around the District Rootstown Welcomes the University of Akron! By Terri Hrina-Treharn Working with Wendy Jewell (Director of Student teach- ing and Field Experience) and Barb Baltrinic (Student Teaching Liaison) from the University of Akron over the past year, we were able to build a partnership with their teacher candidate program. Now entering into our second year and expanding to the high school, we are housing 22 teacher candidates this semester! Along with this come four liaisons assigned to our district to oversee the program and work with the teacher candidates. This partnership was sought out as the University of Akron utilizes a co-teaching teacher candidate model. This means the teacher candidate co-teaches with their cooperat- ing teacher from Rootstown versus the traditional model of gradually taking over the classroom. Both groups receive professional development on co-teaching and the many models it offers. This in turn helps students as there are now two teachers available in the classroom and allows for more individual time, small group work, stations, etc. We are very excited to have them and look forward to what the future holds as the numbers just keep growing… Superintendent’s Message Welcome to the 2015-16 school year! The Rootstown Local School District Staff is excited to again be working with the students, parents, and community and are committed to providing our students with the best all-around education possible while being fiscally responsible. You will notice several upgrades to our buildings and grounds this year and these items were all purchased with permanent improvement funds. We have added over 150 computers this year, completed an electrical upgrade to the elementary school, paved the middle school parking lot, and replaced a boiler in the middle school along with Andrew Hawkins various other projects on campus. Superintendent We are also excited to begin our partnership with the Mahoning County Educational Service Center this year, which will be a tremendous asset to our teaching and learning. Furthermore, we will be continuing our partnership with the Univer- sity of Akron, who will be providing us with 22 teacher candidates this Fall. The teacher candidates will be working alongside our teachers and students in a co-teaching model. I am pleased to announce that our district has made the transition to the Google platform. Moving to the Google platform will enable staff and students to have access to all of the Google for Education products, which we believe will have a positive impact on our technology goals as well as enhance student learning. The Rootstown Board of Education has been working with Rootstown Board of Trustees on a possible JEDD to improve our aging school facilities. As a result, our Board of Education has hired GPD Group to perform a feasibility study to analyze if a JEDD is a possibility for our school district. The feasibility study should be completed within the next couple of months. Finally, we will be asking the community to renew a 5.98 Mill Emergency Levy on November 3rd this year. This is NOT a new tax and the monies that this levy generates will continue to be used for operating expenses. We look forward to an excellent 2015-16 school year! Thank you for your continued support of Rootstown Local Schools. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions regarding our school district, Go Rovers! ANDREW HAWKINS SUPERINTENDENT Page 2 News From the Treasurer’s Office Everyone loves a win! This year we have started off with a win-win for both the taxpayers and the employees. Because of engagement by our employees in the Wellness program, the school district was able to see a 4% savings in our health insurance rates over what they would have been without these initiatives. This resulted in savings of nearly $65,000 for this year alone. Of course, the best benefit is healthier employees. This November the district is asking for a levy RENEWAL. This is an Emergency type levy, which means it can only raise a certain dollar amount, generating the same $1,045,000 as it did over the last five years. It is a renewal only, so there is NO TAX INCREASE. This represents a little over 8% of our budget and is the equivalent of educating approximately 120 of our students. This is an important levy, and we hope that you will continue to show your pride by supporting Rootstown Schools. Connie Baldwin CONNIE BALDWIN Treasurer TREASURER Rootstown District News Mahoning County Educational Service Center (MCESC) By Terri Hrina-Treharn Although we are sad to see the Portage County Educational Service Center close, we are happy to now be working with the Mahoning County ESC. With this change come new faces to the district who will be working closely with staff. Three consultants have been assigned to our district to serve us this year. Corey Bubon will be our elementary consultant, Maurice Taylor will be the secondary consultant and work with special education, and Terri Sigler will be the district’s new gifted consultant. Staff have already had the opportunity to meet them at our opening convo- cation and hear a little more about themselves and the district goals they will be working towards. We look forward to this new partnership and welcome them aboard! Rootstown Chamber By Denese Schneckenburger It's time for the annual Rootstown Area Chamber of Commerce Community and Business Expo! This year's EXPO will be held on October 24th, 10:00AM-2:00PM at the Rootstown High School. The gymnasium (and beyond) is filled with the best area businesses. There will be trick-or-treating and a costume contest for the children, the ever-popular Chinese auction is back, and we will be selling raffle tickets for a chance to win some grand prizes! It is sure to have something for all ages. All proceeds go to benefit the Chamber Scholarship Fund and special projects. Bring the family and join in the fun. See the chamber website for more details: www.rootstownchamber.org. Thank you to all who have joined us at the many Chamber events this spring and summer. Your support and attendance mean a great deal to this organization. These events showcase our local businesses, and provide an opportunity to raise funds for the chamber scholarship program. This year, we have held business after-hours at Access to Independence, Barrel Run Crossing Winery, Mi Rancho Mexican Restaurant, the NEOMED Wine and Beer Tasting, Angelo's Pizzeria at the NEOMED Farmer's Market and coming soon is our annual Expo on Oct. 24th. Each year, the Rootstown Area Chamber of Commerce has provided two scholarships to graduating seniors of the Rootstown High School. In 2016, Bio-Med Science Academy located at NEOMED University will graduate its first class of seniors! What an accomplishment for the school and this community. With that, the Chamber of Commerce has chosen to expand on our commitment to the young men and women of this com- munity by adding a scholarship opportunity for the BIOMED graduating seniors. This is a big goal for the Chamber and your continued support is greatly appreciated. Thank you again, and please mark your calendars to join us at the Expo in October! NHS Summer Clean Up By Carol Pullin Rootstown National Honor Society performs a variety of service activities for the district and community. It has become a tradition that the senior members reserve a summer morning for “grounds clean up”. This year the entrance to the Memorial Garden was the targeted area. Shrubs were trimmed, weeds were pulled and walkways were cleared. Other service projects for this fall will include our “Kids Pak” collection. Small toys are collected from each first period class. Classes have the opportunity to win prizes (which are provided by the current NHS members).These are delivered to Robinson Memorial Hospital’s “Kids Pak” program. Countless Portage county children have benefitted from this program.

By Terri Hrina-Treharn We would sincerely like to thank Norm Reynolds for his 18 years of service on the Board as well as his contributions to our school and community. During his tenure, he served as President, Vice President, and for a number of years as the Legislative Liaison. Please know, you will be missed.

The first half of the 2019-20 school year was filled with numerous student achievements and growth both in the classroom and in extracurricular ac- tivities. The second half of the school year, I’m sure, will be filled with even more student achievements as well as students partaking in Ohio’s State Tests this spring. Congratulations to the Elementary School for being selected by the Ohio Department of Education as a Purple Andrew Hawkins Star designee, which is awarded to schools that exceed the criteria for serving military-connected students and Superintendent families!

This started as a small project involving one 4th grade class, and then grew to the entire grade level, district, and community members! Students, staff, and parents worked hard to collect shelter supplies, fabric to make tie blankets, and ingredients to make homemade dog treats. On December 20th, all four classrooms turned into blanket and treat making factories! At the end of the day, 120 tie blankets were made and over 500 treats were hand-rolled. Along with the blankets and treats, we collected 151 cans of cat food, 57 bags of dog treats, 24 bags of dog food, 31 paper towel rolls, 16 toilet paper rolls, 11 large bottles of bleach, 11 large bottles of laundry detergent, 6 boxes of latex gloves, 22 containers of disinfectant wipes, 5 boxes of trash bags, various chew toys, and a $250 donation from Thrivent Financial! Teachers, Alexis Gearhart, Cody Apthorpe, Christy Duvall, and Nicole Strope along with sever- al parent volunteers, worked extremely hard to make this project a success for the animals at Rose’s Rescue, Portage County Humane Society, Paws & Prayers, and One of a Kind Pets! We hope to see this project continue to grow each year, teaching kids the importance of kindness and empathy.
